About the project

Expanding a Beautiful Home

Our clients had already done a wonderful job refurbishing their house, but they reached a point where they simply needed more room. Our goal was to create that extra space while completely rethinking how the house connects to the outdoors. We didn’t just want to add rooms; we wanted to change how the whole property feels to live in.

The Transformation

The project covers every level of the home, featuring a loft conversion and both single and double-storey extensions at the rear. Outside, we completely redesigned the garden with a mix of new planting and stone terrace work. We also added a modern garden room that sits perfectly at the edge of a new swimming pool—the ultimate spot for relaxing.

Modern, Yet Hidden

Because the house is in a conservation area, we had to be clever with the design. We wanted the new extensions and the garden to look bold and modern, but we needed to respect the neighborhood. We carefully tucked the new additions away so that from the street, the house keeps its classic character, while the back reveals a private, contemporary sanctuary.

Key Features

"My wife and I had some vague ideas of what we wanted, however, the expertise, creativity, and knowledge provided by John Morris have transformed our brief into the vision of a dream home." 

- Richard Mitchell, Ealing

" It was the first time that we have used an architect and we found that the use of John's services was paid back both in terms of the savings that he was able to identify through excellent contacts and helpful advice as well as the added value for the house. It also helped us avoid making expensive mistakes through a piecemeal approach." 

- Martin & Lyndsey Done, Gunthorpe

"John Morris Architects was one of three architects we found on the internet. After a couple of meetings with each of them and John's initial concept design, we found it very easy to make our choice. I would recommend John Morris architects to anybody and would love to work with John on another job in the future." 

-Simon & Sharon Moss, Nottingham
